Family Mediation

The benefits of family mediation in assisting to resolve family conflict is that it takes place in an environment of co-operation, uses a structured decision making process and focuses on the participants needs and interests. You have control over your dispute and take responsibility for the agreements reached.

Co parenting

Step parenting

Blended families

Same sex couples

Department of Human Services families

Families with donor conceived children

Typically, mediation sessions run for 2 or 3 hours in Melbourne, and in most cases the matter is resolved in 1 session.

Duration of session times are at the discretion of the practitioner & safety for all parties is of utmost importance.
